Top 3 General Practitioners in Sa'Ada Street 2026

When do you need a general practitioner?

A general practitioner (GP) is usually your first point of contact for health problems. GPs provide broad primary care for the whole family. That covers minor illnesses, ongoing follow-up of long-term conditions, and referral to a specialist when a problem needs more focused care.

Common reasons to book a GP visit include:

• Sudden or acute symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, earache, stomach upset or a new rash
• Colds and flu that are not improving or are making it hard to eat, drink or sleep
• A yearly check-up, especially if you have a family history of conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes
• Follow-up of a long-term medicine, so your treatment can be reviewed and adjusted by a doctor
• A referral to a specialist or for further tests
• General health advice, vaccinations or a health certificate for work or study

The three profiles on this page publish consultation, assessment and follow-up services. If you need something specific, ask the clinic before booking. Examples include an injection, a vaccine or a health certificate.

Warning signs that need emergency care, not a clinic appointment

Call 911, Jordan's emergency number, or go straight to a hospital emergency department if you or someone with you has:

• Chest pain, pressure or tightness, especially if it spreads to the arm, jaw or back
• Difficulty breathing or blue lips
• Signs of stroke: face drooping, weakness in an arm or leg, or slurred speech
• A sudden, severe headache, confusion, fainting or a seizure
• Heavy bleeding, or a serious injury or burn
• Swelling of the face, lips or throat after a food, medicine or sting
• High fever with a stiff neck, or a rash that does not fade when pressed
• A baby or older person who is very drowsy, not drinking or showing signs of dehydration

In Zarqa, emergency care is available at hospitals including Zarqa Government Hospital, Prince Faisal bin Al-Hussein Hospital and Prince Hashem bin Al-Hussein Military Hospital.

How to choose among the doctors here

All three doctors list the same three published services, so practical details will matter most.

• Timing. Dr. Issa Salah Al Omari and Dr. Arina Allan list daytime hours, 10:00–17:00, Saturday to Thursday. Dr. Ammar Shukri Al Jallad lists evening hours, 18:00–22:00, on the same days. If you work or study during the day, the evening slot may be easier.
• Insurance match. Check which clinic accepts your insurer before anything else (see the insurance section below). This can decide your choice on its own.
• Continuity of care. If you manage a long-term condition, choose a GP you can realistically see again and again. A doctor who knows your history can follow your treatment more closely.
• Doctor's gender. Some patients prefer a female doctor for certain examinations or concerns. Dr. Arina Allan is the female GP on this list.
• Exact location. Dr. Ammar Shukri Al Jallad's biography gives a street address that differs from the listing's area name. Confirm the building before you travel.
• The specific service you need. If you need vaccinations, a health certificate or tests at the clinic, ask in advance rather than assuming.

Remember that the order on this page reflects how complete each published profile is. It does not show which doctor will suit you best.

What to expect at the first visit

A first GP visit usually starts with questions about your symptoms, past illnesses, medicines and family history. A physical examination often follows. This may include checking your blood pressure, temperature, heart and chest, depending on why you came. The doctor may then suggest home care, a prescription, tests, a follow-up visit or a referral.

What to bring

• Your national ID or passport, and your insurance card
• A list of all medicines you take, including vitamins and herbal products, or the packets themselves
• Any known allergies, especially to medicines
• Recent test results, X-ray reports or hospital discharge summaries
• For children, their vaccination card and any growth or health records

Questions worth asking

• What do you think is causing my symptoms, and what else could it be?
• Do I need any tests, and are they done here or elsewhere?
• Which warning signs should make me come back sooner or go to emergency?
• When should I return for follow-up?
• Do I need a referral letter for a specialist, and will my insurance require it?

It helps to write your symptoms down beforehand: when they started, how they have changed, and what makes them better or worse.

Insurance, fees and booking: what to ask before the appointment

According to the published profiles, these are the insurers each clinic accepts:

• Dr. Issa Salah Al Omari: United Insurance — NatHealth, MetLife Alico, The Islamic Insurance Company, Arab Orient Insurance and Al-Nisr Al-Arabi Insurance Company
• Dr. Arina Allan: United Insurance — NatHealth, MetLife Alico and The Islamic Insurance Company
• Dr. Ammar Shukri Al Jallad: Al-Nisr Al-Arabi Insurance Company and Arab Orient Insurance

Insurer lists can change, and a company may offer several plans. When you call, ask:

• Is my specific plan and network accepted, not just the insurer's name?
• Is there a co-payment, and how much will I pay at the clinic?
• What is the consultation fee if I pay myself, and is a follow-up visit charged separately?
• Are tests, injections or certificates covered, or charged on top of the visit?
• Does my insurer need a GP referral before I see a specialist?

Two of the biographies ask patients to call and confirm an appointment before visiting. That is sensible for all three clinics, since walk-in availability is not guaranteed.

Getting there

Sa'ada Street is in Zarqa city, the centre of a governorate of around 1.7 million residents. People living in New Zarqa, Zawahreh or Hashemiyah may find the street a short trip. Residents of Russeifa or Dhlail should allow more travel time, especially at busy hours. For people coming from Azraq, the journey is much longer, so booking a confirmed time matters even more.

Practical tips:

• Ask the clinic for the exact building, floor and nearest entrance when you book.
• If you are travelling by taxi or ride-hailing, share the clinic's name and street with the driver.
• For evening appointments, plan how you will get home afterwards.
• If you feel too unwell to travel safely, do not drive yourself. If you have any of the warning signs above, call 911 instead.

Checklist before you book

• Decide whether you need a daytime or evening appointment
• Confirm the clinic accepts your insurer and your specific plan
• Ask about the consultation fee and any extra charges
• Check that the service you need is offered (for example vaccination or a health certificate)
• Confirm the exact address, especially for Dr. Ammar Shukri Al Jallad's clinic
• Call ahead to confirm your appointment time
• Prepare a list of symptoms, medicines and allergies
• Bring your ID, insurance card and any previous results
• Know the warning signs that mean you should call 911 instead
